>games aren't art and thinking so dragged down the hobby
"If film critics could destroy a movie, Michael Bay and Adam Sandler would be working at Starbucks. If film critics could make a movie a hit, the Dardenne brothers would be courted by every studio in town."
"Critics may look down on a popular work on principle, denouncing it as Lowest Common Denominator garbage that’s all flash and no substance. Conversely, the public may see a work beloved by the critics as boring, angsty and pretentious drivel engineered solely to win awards from equally boring, angsty and pretentious Academy members."

If you think game journos hipsters asking vidya to be deep and thought-provoking somehow affects video game's ability to be emotionally investing and entertaining, you need to stop following them on twitter.
